The project also received a building permit and thus we have the original Construction Documents as the Architect of Record. g The previous Owner did not proceed with the Project due the code requirement for a sprinkler system which required the Owner to incur costs for the infrastructure in Beekman Street. This came in over budget and thus the Owner decided to abandon the project. Since that time, the lot has been vacant. Currently, the lot is under contract pending City approvals for the same project for a different Owner. Essentially, the floor plan and overall exterior will be the same as what was originally designed. The proposed floor plan will include a 2-story mixed use building. The first floor will have 1 residential unit and a gallery/retail space at the street level. The second floor will include an Owner-occupied residential unit. This is an appropriate use for the Beekman Arts District and the building is designed to have a similar scale and architectural features to blend into the streetscape. We are excited about the possibility to have this project come to fruition. We feel that it will add to the street character of Beekman Street and add to the growing artist community. Included in the submission package is a letter that outlines the process that the project went through g previously along with the proposed site plan, design and relevant submission materials. At this point, the Zoning Board has passed the motion to make the Planning Board have lead agency status for the SEQR application. We are requesting thatg y q g you review the project for a negative declaration and to approve the special use permit.We will need to go back to the Zoning Board to receive the required variances and will be seeking approval from the DRC. pectfully sub 'tted _D san L.

The exterior design has changed from a three-story building to a two-story building. It is important to note that that this does not affect the previously approved area variance requests or parking request. The revised design was seen as a favorable change in the opinion of the Planning Board and has been approved by both the Planning Board and the Design Review Commission. It was only recently brought to our attention that you would also need to review and approve the revised design. Therefore, we are submitting for your re-approval, and requesting to be placed on the Nov. 19th meeting and would like to request a resolution that night, as we are amending the previous resolution with the newly submitted plans. In order to clarify some history for the project, we have outlined the past outline for you to review. The project first went in front of the Zoning Board and was approved as a three-story flat roof structure. After due consideration on the part of the client, and over concerns that the Zoning Board expressed, the design was altered to be a two story structure with a combination gable roof and flat roof. The occupancy remained essentially the same. It is designed to be a mixed-use building with two residential units and 1200 sf of art gallery/artist studio space. The residential unit was re-located from the second story to the first story as a smaller unit. The revised design was favorably reviewed by the Planning Board and Design Review Commission and approved along with the parking requirements. The revised design (although never officially reviewed by the Zoning Board) does not change the requests that were approved. The approval process was the following: 9-18-06-The Zoning Board reviewed the project and gave their approval for the project as a three story flat roof structure with the relief as follows: Required Proposed Requested Front Yard setback--10'-0" Proposed--0' Total Relief—10' Max. Lot Coverage--30% Proposed- 44% Total Relief— 14% Min. unobstructed Corner--30' Proposed--20' Total Relief—10' The ZBA issued a neg. declaration on an uncoordinated review. The project was requested to go to Design Review for an advisory opinion 10-18-06—The project is presented to the Planning Board as a three-story building. The application is held open as no action is taken and the motion passes to have the project go to DRC for an Advisory opinion. At this point,the design is altered due to concerns over a three-story structure and due to cost concerns. 11-2-06--The project is presented to the DRC as a two-story structure with history of the how the design has evolved. DRC issues a positive advisory opinion-no formal action is taken 11-6-06—revised submission (with change to 2 stories)to the Planning Board. 11-15-06—Planning Board approves the revised submission with favorable response. Approval includes the waiver of 7 parking spaces. 9 are required. 2 spaces will be provided in the garage. 11-16-06—Design Review Commission approves the two-story option for mass and scale. The motion is approved with the condition that the applicant will return with specific details on materials, manuf. Literature for doors and windows and railing details. 11-21-06-submission to DRC for materials and details as requested. 12-7-06--DRC approves the project materials and details as submitted--The applicant will return for advisory opinion for the foundation material that is exposed. The applicant has the permission from DRC to proceed with the building permit. I hope that this helps to clarify the situation. Respectfully, Susan L.
